Default 2nd opinion pls :lycopodium for cough??

Hi,

I am totally new to this. My 14mth old son from the age of 6 mths will have difficulty and wheezing whenever there is a slight cough. This happens every 2-3mths. Conventional DR diagnose as bronchitis.

Just went to a homeopathic who prescribe Lycopodium. In small little round pill to be taken 3 times a day. The potency is not indicated as it is packed in a "homemade" container.

Questions he asked and I answered to:
lots of perspiration
drools a lot
like to bite and chew things
lots of movement during sleep
wet cough
slight runny nose
prefer eating fish

Info I provided
used to have eczema till change to soy formula
always sound phelgmy

from what i read of lycopodium, seems like it's used to treat more of hair loss/genital rather than cold and block/inflammed airways. I am concern whether the prescription is correct.

In addition, would also like to find out whether we should continue the remedy if my son takes his 15mth MMR vaccination.

Please help. Thanks a lot.
